Most visitors to Port Vila take a stroll through the central markets. In addition to the displays of fresh organic vegetables piled up neatly with fixed prices attached, the food stalls selling pre-made dishes also attract the curious traveller. Essentially ground and mashed tapioca, laplap makes a convenient base for any topping, be it chicken, fish or toasted coconut. For less than 20¢ you can get a quick fill of the delicious snack.
